Miracle Pill Maker Bullies the Boss Chapter 1218 - Admit Defeat

Chapter 1218: Admit Defeat

The leaders of the association turned to gaze at Fu Cheng, looking impressed.
In their impression, Fu Cheng was a talented apothecary, but he was never considered to be at the genius level. Most people treated him with respect simply because he was Deputy Chairman Qin’s disciple.
Today, he had proven himself by making these pills.
The leaders looked at Fu Cheng before looking at He Shu’s box of pills. It was S grade as well, but Fu Cheng’s pills had surpassed those overwhelmingly.
If Fu Cheng was not taking part in the exam, He Shu’s pills would definitely rank as number one. After all, they were very well made.
“Deputy Chairman Qin, your disciple has been keeping such a low profile. No one would have guessed that it was his work. If we did not see these pills with our own eyes, no one would have thought that it was him.”
“I am very impressed.”
Deputy Chairman Qin lapped in the praise. Despite the humble smile on his face, he was clearly smiling and delighted. He cleared his throat and said, “To be honest, I did not realize how good Fu Cheng was becoming. This time, he even outdid He Shu.”
He looked at Chairman Wang casually hoping to catch the chairman looking awkward.
After all, He Shu always came out on top at each exam. For once, he finally performed poorly, so he was bound to feel upset.
Deputy Chairman Qin kept looking at Chairman Wang, but he did not notice anything amiss. He pursed his lips sternly.
Chairman Wang was undoubtedly a very composed man. After all, he had been chairman of the association for years. Despite the overwhelming defeat, he remained calm.
He Shu was standing nearby, but he quickly walked over and looked at the box of medicine Fu Cheng had concocted. He said hoarsely, “Mind if I take a look at the medicinal pills?”
He Shu did not care about what the people were saying about his lackluster performance. He was simply interested in medicine.
Since Chairman Wang agreed that Fu Cheng’s pills were excellent, they must be pretty good.
Deputy Chairman Qin glanced at He Shu. He leaned against the seat backrest and said graciously, “Be my guest. It is important to share knowledge if we want the trade to flourish.”
Chairman Wang frowned without saying a word. He took out his phone and sent Huo Yao a text message.
He Shu nodded courteously and opened the box. His face looked exhausted but his eyes instantly lit up when he saw the medicinal pills.
The pills were undoubtedly far better than his work. Considering their quality, the apothecary had already learned everything he could and was ready to graduate.
After studying them briefly, He Shu reluctantly put them back inside the box.
Deputy Chairman Qin assumed He Shu was reacting this way because he felt defeated. He smiled even more deeply. “He Shu, don’t be sad. You are also very gifted.”
He Shu remained calm. He seemed oblivious about Deputy Chairman Qin’s efforts to belittle him. Instead, he shook his head. “Fu Cheng is far better than me. I wholly admit defeat!”
Even if He Shu worked hard for a few more years, he could never produce medicinal pills of Fu Cheng’s caliber.
Chairman Wang had yet to hear back from Huo Yao. He simply glanced at his disciple and shook his head. Why was He Shu so stubborn? Did the medicine maker explosion make him dumb or something?
Deputy Chairman Qin’s cheek twitched when He Shu graciously admitted defeat. For a moment, he did not know what to say.
